The Athletic claim Wolves are now contemplating his sale for around £30million.
The report states that Everton are big admirers of the 22-year-old as Frank Lampard looks to strengthen his ranks.
And they’ve raised funds for some transfer activity through the sale of Richarlison to Tottenham for £52million.
The Toffees might also have an ace up their sleeve with former Wolves academy manager and technical director Kevin Thelwell now at Goodison Park.
Forest were priced as low as 2/1 but their odds have now drifted to 10/3 to sign the attacking midfielder.
Manager Steve Cooper has already made six new signings and spent £62m in preparation for their first season back in the top flight since 1999.
Forest have signed a goalkeeper (Dean Henderson) two right backs (Neco Williams and Giulian Biancone), a centre back (Moussa Niakhate) and a left back (Omar Richards) as well as Taiwo Awoniyi up front.
But he wants more to help preserve the club’s top-flight status, and knows Gibbs-White from their time together in England’s under-17s squad.

- Everton – 4/6
- Nottingham Forest – 10/3
- Crystal Palace – 5/1
- Leeds – 14/1

They lead Patrick Vieira’s Crystal Palace at 5/1 who are currently third in the race for the 22-year-old.
Jesse Marsch’s Leeds side have the next shortest odds at 14/1, while Newcastle are 22/1.
Gibbs-White spent last season on loan at Championship Sheffield United, where he was voted Player of the Year.
The England Under-21 international scored 12 goals and provided ten assists in 37 appearances in all competitions, and is priced at 33/1 to head back to Bramall Lane this season.
Gibbs-White has now returned to Molineux, but talks to extend his contract beyond June 2024 have not progressed.
